Good morning all, two bad nights and counting !! Screaming shouting, running around in the middle of the night, I hate this disease of dementia with an absolute vengeance !! Waking in a morning to uncertainty, worry and a feeling of absolute hopelessness, unsettled and nervous, feeling like my mind is not my own, i could go on and on. and yet!! the dawn breaks and another day emerges..............
Dementia is relentless, it doesn't recognise Christmas, New years, holidays etc, it doesn't recognise creed or colour, rich or poor, it just Marches on,
PLEASE LET THERE BE A CURE IN 2017

Morning @norrms I am so sorry you are having a bad time, this sounds really exhausting for you.0

it is and sadly nothing new xxxxxxxxx0

To be honest @norrms I have very little experience of dementia, that is why it is so great that people like you share on this community. Every time we speak out, we have the opportunity to teach others and raise awareness.0

How one mans dream from Torbay , Devon, UK, dream of a dementia friendly world is hopefully turning into an ongoing reality
Short film only 26 mins long
Entered into the Famous Sundance festival USA and now entered into the LIVING WITH ALZ film festival .
Filmed in Torbay / Uk / and the USA
This is how the Global Purple Angel dementia awareness campaign has evolved from a local group called the Torbay dementia Action Alliance into a Global awareness Campaign which is now known in 40+ Countries worldwide and has over 600 Purple Angel ambassadors globally including memory cafes worldwide, Purple Angel cities in the USA and a WORLD ROCKS AGAINST DEMENTIA coming up for the second time in March 18th 2017.It could have NEVER have happened without the support of all
Eternally grateful
